JUST A FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT THE POLL FOR THIS CHALLENGE IS UP SO MAKE SURE TO VOTE!
My apologies on having to redo the thread, this was my first conducting a poll on this site and I accidentally deleted the option to poll in the previous thread. I copied over all the information from the prior thread to the new one, comments included. Thank you=)

Brilliant about the sketching and I agree with and favor the way you are working as well for those same reasons. Very interesting that you favored your earlier sketches as I did as well; we stay striving for better. I'm pretty sure I get what you are explaining about the tones, so you do set the tones via grayscale. I get the warm and cool color sets and it's neat to reverse the order sometimes making the light cool and the shadows warm, this can really change the mood of things.
I do get what you are saying where if the sketch foundation is solid enough, you don't have to do as much over painting; this can be a big time saver and something I experimented with in this past. If the forum is in my hands I don't think I would ever make a deadline earlier,lol; that's a sure way to get disliked quickly,lol.That funny about the ghostbusters dog, but I can see that, ZUUUUUUUL! lmao. Great clip from the Labyrinth movie, love that!
Very cool on the anatomy mentions, and I'll have to check those out. You're absolutely right, it's just putting in the mileage on the right stuff and over time it all starts coming together, it definitely doesn't happen over night; at least for most it doesn't. That great advice for DamienLevs as well, thanks for helping him as well.
DamienLevs: I understand what you are saying and you are mostly likely right, def likely not worth it for an older machine like this especially.
CBinnsIllustration: Thank you so much man and I'm always grateful for our little creative online community here. I appreciate the nice mentions on my piece and glad you like it, I put a lot of thought into this one and just really tried to let go and have fun putting it all together and falling back mostly on what I know, I know instead of over experimenting with this image.
Thanks for breaking down your black and gray painting process. I totally where you're coming from in the idea that you are working volumetric sculpting shapes with the values. This reminds me very much of how the great Magic Artist Mike Lim a.k.a Daarken works. Very good stuff and I can see how this saves a lot of time as I have used it before in the past. There's something about line being more expressive for me, so I always find myself working back in line work opposed to volumetric, but I may just give this technique a re-visit next round at least to craft my thumbnails with.
